The other day you reccomended for me to not post car photos, I guess to avoid downvotes — which I kinda ignored because I enjoy sharing the livery designs I create in Gran Turismo and see no reason why I can't continue to share them. It's my blog after all and this is supposed to be a platform where nobody controls what you post, right? Since then I've realized it's not my content that is targeted, but me as an individual. Doesn’t matter what I post anymore. Hive is a place I can safely host my content, but it’s obviously not a place I can’t count on to earn rewards for it anymore. Considering this post is highly informative, motivational, has nothing to do with video games, and offers helpful information... yet it still was downvoted into the ground. Next we get to watch all of my Mexico vacation blogs be DV’d once I start posting them late next week.

Yeah dude.. I don't like seeing it! Perhaps not putting up the car posts anymore, and do some other content? You were doing really well with the gaming content.
I think what irked people was 1 month straight of the same thing even though you added your own flavor to it. It didn't feel like it was a lot of effort put into them, even if you may have.. the look of it was just reward farming. I get their perspective.. but I also get yours.
Alternatively, you could decline rewards on the car posts.
If you stick it out, and put out other and more normal varied content I think you could go back to earning like before, but hard to say.
I'd consider you a friend on here, so it makes me sad to see these things, so hoping we can get it sorted out..
I’d consider you a friend too, which is why it’s easy to chat about things like this knowing you have no reason to be biased.
3-5 hours per design and an hour to photograph each car. Although it’s fun to me, it still doesn’t feel low effort. I’ve been playing the game since early 2022, I have a stockpile.
I don’t find myself getting irked over other people’s content, no matter how poor/repetitive some of it is and how many rewards they get for just a few paragraphs of text.
Pretty sure there’s no sorting it out.
Yeah, maybe lay low for a while, decline rewards and stick to curation for a while. If you're at 50k HP you can still earn like 15 Hive per day in curation. Not bad, really!
Hopefully this will blow over, but I would certainly say don't post those car things anymore..
@daltono Greetings comrade. I have been seeing that you have been receiving negative votes recently on your content. I believe the main cause of this (in part) is that you have been added to the Hive Watchers blacklist. If you check the comments on your blog they (HW) left you several comments asking you to avoid generating part of your texts with chatgpt or AI.
So apparently the negative votes you are receiving are partly because you are on their blacklist. Although some of those votes you have received do not belong to HWs.
In my opinion you have an excellent track record on hive, and have always created original and good quality content. Don't let this drive you away from hive.
I think the best thing would be for you to go through the HW discord to start an appeal process and remove your user from the blacklist. That will keep a large portion of the negative votes away.
Here I attach the proof that you are blacklisted and the comments left by the HW's, just in case I am not a member of the HW's team. I am just a common user who has seen the situation. Best regards.
